Equipment
Later 1300 Super engine, hub caps, Avon tires, gold brightwork, black exhaust tips, tools.
Condition
Represented as a three-owner car recently restored by a marque expert. Very good paint and brightwork. Slightly imperfect panel gaps. Excellent interior. Nearly spotless underneath. The window gaskets are a little dull and there are some very light track scratches in the driver's window. A few details aside, it's a gorgeous Pre-A bent window coupe with no needs.
Market commentary
This is the quintessential "bathtub" Porsche and it's not a surprise it doesn't have its original 1500 engine, or that the 1300 Super engine fitted has a few more horsepower. The Biltmore bidders liked its style and performance, not to mention its moderate $125,000-$150,000 estimate range, and gave it a healthy price that's more than deserved by its specifications and restoration.
